All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible.
"He is earning €200k per year."
"She is going to New York for weekend."
"He is marrying his love of life."
"She got selected in Harward University."
This is all that we are concerned with, being envious of others, feeling happy for others, feeling proud of others. And this the biggest reason for not living our own life to the fullest. Everybody gets what they deserve, everybody gets what they work for and anybody who disagrees with this statement is trying to give false consolation to his once stepped down upon ego.Reality of life is same as accepting that people all around are better than us. People are better and they should be, because they have devoted part of their lives doing and practicing things that we have not. So getting obsessed with so many people with us is not the right road to take. We yearn to be better than everyone without working hard overlooking the fact that this is not going to happen.

Being one of the people in rat race and not coming at any desired position is not that should concern us, being alive and making your once given bounty of life worthwhile is what should pester us and motivate us to be what we are. Being yourself is the greatest thing one can achieve.
Life is a fusion of fantasy and reality. Reality is harsh, Dreams seem nice but both are inevitable components of our life. Reality vs Living Dreams is a paradox of life and it always will be. What matters is how you turn your opportunities to success and dreams to reality on your own. Ending with a stupendous use of words that say:
